Housing exchange
With the digital housing exchange, the Social Services Department is helping to utilise existing living space sensibly and efficiently.
Description
Living space in Munich is scarce. While some larger flats are only occupied by one or two people, there are families who urgently need more space. It is also becoming increasingly difficult for trainees and students to find affordable housing. In order to make better use of the available living space, the "Munich Housing Exchange" was launched in December 2020 with the following offers
- Flat exchange
- Subletting
- Housing partnerships in the "Housing for help" model
Flat swap
Has your flat become too big after the children have moved out? Do you find it difficult to climb stairs and need a lift? Do you need more space because your family has grown? You can post your offers and requests on the flat exchange.
The digital flat exchange is a platform on which tenants can offer their flats for exchange. The City of Munich has no influence on the number and type of flats offered. A flat swap takes place when two swap partners have found each other and the landlords agree to the swap.
The municipal housing association Münchner Wohnen (formerly GWG and GEWOFAG) sets a good example. Tenants of privately financed flats can swap their flat. You can find the conditions under Questions and Answers.
Subletting
When subletting, you do not have to leave your familiar living environment and can benefit from optimal utilisation of the flat if you would like to sublet one or more rooms in return for a proportionate, fair rental income.
